In the magical world of Aetherus, Damon Grey is the weakest student at Aether Academy, relentlessly bullied and ridiculed for his lack of power and defiant personality. Yet, he endures the torment, clinging to his scholarship—the only thing providing him with the funds to keep his sick sister alive. 

After a brutal attack leaves him near death, Damon encounters a dark viscous entity in the forest that fuses with his shadow, awakening the Living Shadow System. This strange power grants him unimaginable abilities but comes with a grim cost—a relentless hunger for souls and flesh to feed his shadow. 

Now, with his shadow alive and insatiable, Damon faces a terrible choice: feed it to grow stronger or starve it and die with it. 

In a world ruled by ruthless nobles, deadly monsters, and power-hungry demons, Damon must decide if his newfound power is a curse or the only way to survive. With the Living Shadow System, his fate is clear: devour or be devoured.

My Living Shadow System Devours To Make Me Stronger

Damon held Sylvia's hand as he led her out of the building. She followed him, their figures starkly contrasting— a bloodied black-haired human boy with eyes as dark as the night, holding the delicate hand of an elven girl with white hair and piercing gray eyes. Despite their differences, they made for a striking sight, as if their disparities only served to make them stand out more.

As they stepped outside, Damon's gaze fell upon the knights. They stood amid ash and ruin, their armor battered, their bodies weary as they attempted to salvage what little remained of their fallen comrades. But there was nothing left—Ignath's flames had erased them completely. No bodies to bury, no remains to return home. Only the echoes of death and destruction lingered.

And yet, they had fought for his cause. They had risked everything. It felt wrong to let their sacrifice go unrecognized.
